Oh my darling I couldn't stand the emptiness
I couldn't take the loneliness tonight
Empty-handed I come crawling back again, again
Only to face the morning and its blight
Every step I take away from you, I always knew
I'd regret every moment from the start
It's hard to listen to any thoughts when all I've got
To hear is just the pounding of my heart
With every move I make, and every bind I break
I feel myself falling further back to you
I know I've made mistakes, and when I feel their ache
I know I'm breathing, it's just what I had to do
To go further and, to run faster and
To finally find my way back to you
To shout louder and, to push harder and
To finally find my way back to you
Oh my darling I couldn't last another day
Of hiding behind songs I'd never play
I know you read between the lines
I know you saw it in my eyes
Such tough decisions I've never been the one to choose
But I'll make them if they lead back to you
I've heard you have to break it down to build it up
But I'll never know if these two hands will ever be enough
Cause every move I make, and every bind I break
I feel myself falling further back to you
I know I've made mistakes, and when I feel their ache
I know I'm breathing, it's just what I had to do
To go further and, to run faster and
To finally find my way back to you
To shout louder and, to push harder and
To finally find my way back to you
To love you longer and to be stronger and
To finally find my way back to you
To hold you closer and to finally understand
To build myself back up again to you
